Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (a) Field of Industrial Use The present invention relates to a medium net basket for a fryer used for a fryer for frying tempura, skewers and the like.

(B) Conventional technology Conventionally, as a cooking device (fryer) for frying and cooking tempura or skewers, a large-sized commercial device installed in a kitchen in a store or a pot for deep-fried food at home has been used. In either case, a heating source (gas burner or heater) is arranged outside (downward) of the cooking vessel filled with oil to heat the cooking oil inside from the outside. For example, when frying skewers, when the cooking oil reaches a certain high temperature,
The cook puts in any skewer and pulls it out of the pan for fried color to make it edible.

(C) Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the above-described conventional cooking device for deep-fried food, the cooking oil (fried pan) is heated from the outside (downward) of the cooking oil inside. For this reason, all the oil to be heated comes into contact with air due to thermal convection and is oxidized and deteriorated in a short time. In addition, fried food such as tempura is disadvantageous in that waste such as tempura is generated during frying work, which promotes deterioration (contamination) of edible oil.

Therefore, in recent years, there has been proposed a cooker body in which an electromagnetic induction heating body is arranged below the inside. According to this cooking device, the cooking oil is heated inside the device, and the upper part (upper part) of the heating part is heated intensively, and the temperature of the lower part (lower part) does not rise relatively. Generate convection. This allows
The edible oil located in the lower part of the heating body does not oxidize because it hardly causes heat convection. In addition, since a large temperature difference occurs between the upper temperature and the lower temperature of the heating element, the generated dirt such as dust is maintained in a state of being settled downward, and the contamination of the upper portion of the edible oil can be prevented.

However, since this cooker body is provided with the electromagnetic induction heating body inside, it requires a predetermined depth. Therefore, it is difficult to directly add skewers or tempura ingredients to this cooker body. In other words, since the skewer to be thrown in (tempura radish) is located below the heating element, it is difficult to take it out. Further, in order to solve this, it is conceivable to provide a conventionally known (commercially available) mesh-like net basket inside. However, in this case, there is no escape place for dirt and the like generated in the mesh net basket, and the waste stays in the net basket. Therefore, there is a disadvantage that the edible oil in the net basket is deteriorated (polluted) in a short time.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a convenient medium net basket for a flyer that effectively discharges dirt such as sky dust generated in the net basket and does not pollute the upper layer of edible oil.

(D) Means and Actions for Solving the Problems In order to achieve this object, the medium net basket for a flyer of the present invention has the following configuration.

A medium net basket for a fryer is a medium net basket that is fitted and detachably fitted to a cooker body with an upper opening that heats the upper part of the edible oil to be filled with a heating element disposed below the inside. The middle net basket is provided with a mounting plate portion for locking the cooking device body on the upper peripheral portion of the opening of the net basket body, and an inclined plate portion for detachably mounting the oil drainer plate, and a bottom portion and a lower portion. It is characterized in that an oil circulation mesh portion is provided in the peripheral portion, and a waste material discharge window hole that also serves as an oil filling index portion is provided in the upper peripheral portion, corresponding to the uppermost portion of the heat convection of the heated oil.

The medium net basket for a fryer having such a configuration is used for a so-called intermediate heating type cooker body in which a heating body provided inside mainly heats an upper layer portion of edible oil. This middle net basket is provided with a mounting plate portion and an inclined plate portion that project outward in the upper peripheral portion of the opening. That is, the upper circumference 4 of the opening
A horizontal mounting plate portion is provided on two opposing sides, and an inclined plate portion is provided on a side adjacent to the mounting plate portion (a side in a right angle direction). When this middle net basket is fitted to the cooker body,
The mounting plate portion overlaps with the upper peripheral flange (horizontal plate portion) of the cooker body, and the locking piece portion of the mounting plate portion is caught and locked by the end portion of the flange to be fixed. In this state, the inclined plate portion (gradient plate portion) that rises and inclines outward is positioned above the upper peripheral flange surface. In this fitted state, the bottom surface of the basket has a slight distance from the heating element. The edible oil is injected as the filling index line at the lower side of the dirt discharging window hole that is opened in the upper peripheral portion. Edible oil is
Since it is thermally expanded by being heated, the waste discharge window is opened in consideration of the water level at the time of thermal expansion. Therefore, when the edible oil is heated and thermally expanded, the oil surface (water level) reaches almost the center of the waste discharge window.
On the other hand, the cooking oil is heated to a predetermined temperature by the heating body. The edible oil to be heated flows upward from the heating body at the bottom, that is, from the uppermost direction of the inside net basket to the outside of the inside net basket, and convectively circulates in the downstream direction on the side of the heating body. Therefore, the upper part of the heating element (the side of the basket) is intensively heated,
The lower part of the heating element is not heated relatively, and a large temperature difference occurs between the upper and lower layers of the heating element. In this state, an arbitrary skewer is put into the middle net basket. The lower end of the skewer is supported by the bottom of the middle net basket, and the upper end of the skewer projects above the middle net basket. Dirt such as sky dust generated in the middle net basket flows according to the convection circulation of heat convection oil, flows out from the waste discharge window hole, that is, toward the cooker body side, and the temperature below the heating body is low. Settles in the lower layer. As a result, a clean cooking oil is always held in the middle net basket, and proper frying work can be realized.

(E) Embodiment FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the inner net basket for fryers according to the present invention is attached to the cooker body.

The cooking device body 2 is a rectangular parallelepiped body (housing) having an upper opening and a bottom, and a horizontal flange portion 21 having a constant height (thickness) is provided around the upper peripheral portion of the opening. In addition, a valve 22 for replacing the filling oil (edible oil) W and for removing dirt V such as ceiling dust is provided at the bottom of the body 2.
Is provided. The cooker body 2 is embedded in a table (or counter) 5 of a dining room, for example, and a horizontal flange portion 21 is placed on the upper surface of the table 5. A magnetic induction heating body 3 is provided below the inside of the cooker body 2. As shown in FIG. 3, the magnetic induction heating element 3 is a heating tube.
An electromagnetic iron core 32 is provided inside the core 31, an induction heating coil 33 is provided on the outer circumference of the iron core 32, and a heating element 34 is provided around the outer circumference of the heating coil 33. The upper peripheral portion of the heating element 34 is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the heat generating tube 31, and the lower peripheral portion is made to correspond to the lower peripheral portion of the heat generating tube 31 via the heat insulating portion 35. The iron core (three-phase iron core) 32 is a yoke (not shown).
The yoke is pulled out to the outside of the cooker body 2. By supplying power to the heating element 3, the heating coil 33 is excited, the generated magnetic flux passes through the heating element 34, and a short-circuit current is induced in the heating element 34 by the electromagnetic induction action, so that the heating element 34 directly generates heat. Occurs. In addition, an oil temperature control sensor (not shown) for detecting the oil temperature and controlling the amount of current is attached at an appropriate position of the heating element (heating tube 31) 3.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a specific embodiment of a fly netting basket which is a feature of the present invention.

The middle net basket is fitted in the cooker body 2 so as to be able to be fitted and removed, and has a depth such that the bottom surface thereof is localized with respect to the heating body 3 in a fitted state. It is set. This middle net basket is configured by projecting mounting plate portions 11 and 11 and inclined plate portions 12 and 12 facing each other on four sides of the upper circumference of the opening of the net basket body 1 having an upper opening and a bottom. The mounting plate portion 11 is a rectangular horizontal plate and is a locking portion bent downward (vertically) at the protruding end portion.
11a is provided, and this locking portion 11a is set so as to lock to the end of the horizontal flange portion 21 of the cooker body 2. Further, the inclined plate portion 12 is a sloped plate which is inclined upward toward the outside, and is formed in a tapered shape whose width increases from the base end side to the tip end (projection side). In the plane of the inclined plate portion 12, a plurality of groove portions 12a inwardly of the net basket body 1 are recessed.

The oil removing plate 4 is removably placed on the inclined plate portion 12. The oil draining plate 4 is formed in a shape corresponding to the inclined plate portion 12, an oil draining mesh portion 41 is provided in the surface, and locking piece portions 42 and 43 that are bent downward at right angles to the front end side and the base end side, respectively.
Is protruding. When the oil removing plate 4 is superposed on the upper surface of the inclined plate portion 12, the locking piece portion 42 on the base end side is provided between the opposing walls of the net basket body 1 (between the base end portions of both the mounting plate portions 11). By being located, the movement in the front-back direction (direction of the mounting plate portion 11) is fixed. Further, the locking piece portion 43 on the tip end side is hooked and locked on the tip end portion of the inclined plate portion 12, whereby the movement in the left-right direction (direction of the inclined plate portion 12) is fixed.

Further, an oil distribution mesh portion 13 is provided on the bottom surface and the lower peripheral surface of the inside net basket body 1, and a filth discharge window hole 14 also serving as an oil filling indicator portion is provided on the upper peripheral portion. A plurality of filth discharge window holes 14 are provided on the peripheral surface of the net basket body 1,
It is formed into a large hole that is about twice as large as each mesh hole that constitutes the oil distribution mesh portion 13. The filth discharge window hole 14 is formed corresponding to the uppermost part of the convection circulation of the cooking oil W heated by the heating body 3 (see FIG. 3). Further, the lower side portion of the waste material discharge window 14 also serves as the edible oil filling index line 14a.

In the medium net basket for fryers having such a structure, when the net basket body 1 is fitted into the cooker body 2, the mounting plate portion 11 overlaps with the upper peripheral flange (horizontal plate portion) 21 and the locking piece portion 11a is caught by the end of the flange 21 and is locked and fixed. In this state, the inclined plate portion 12 that rises and inclines outward and the oil removing plate 4 on the inclined plate portion 12 floats above the upper peripheral flange surface 21 and is localized. In this fitted state, the net basket body 1
The bottom surface of is located at a slight distance from the heating element 3. The edible oil W is an index portion on the lower side of the waste discharge window hole 14.
14a is injected as a filling index line (see FIG. 2). The edible oil W is thermally expanded by being heated, and the oil surface W1 reaches a substantially central position of the waste discharge window hole 14 (see FIG. 3). The filling index line 14a prevents the filling oil W from overflowing the cooker body 2 due to thermal expansion. The oil W heated to a predetermined temperature by the heating element 3 heats the upper part of the heating element 3 in a filling manner. That is, the oil W is the third
As shown by the arrows (A and B) in the figure, it rises from the periphery of the heating element 3 to the upper side of the net basket body 1 and to the outside of the net basket body 1 with the uppermost waste discharge window 14 as the apex. It flows out and is convectively circulated toward the lower heating element 3. Therefore, the low temperature oil W in the lower layer portion of the cooker body 2 hardly convects and is not oxidized.

In this state, an arbitrary skewer is put into the net basket body 1. The lower end of the skewer is supported by the bottom of the net basket body 1,
The upper ends of the skewers project above the net basket body 1. In other words, regardless of the depth of the cooker body 1, the skewers can be localized in the oil region (net basket body 1) at the temperature most suitable for frying, and the skewer tips do not touch the oil. , Good to use. The dirt V such as the sky dust generated in the net basket body 1 moves according to the convection circulation of the heat-convected oil W, flows out from the dirt discharging window hole 14, that is, toward the cooker body 2 side, and is heated. It sinks in the lower temperature lower part of the body 3. As a result, the edible oil W that is clean is always held in the net basket body 1, and the service life is long. Also,
The skewer taken out from the net basket main body 1 is placed on the oil draining plate 4 which is placed on the upper surface of the inclined plate portion 12 at one end, so that the oil (oil) attached to the skewer is transferred to the groove portion 12a via the mesh portion 41. And flows into the cooking device body 2 again. This makes it possible to provide a fried food product with a good taste without the extra "stickiness" of the fried skewer.

(F) Effect of the Invention According to this invention, as described above, the mounting plate portion and the inclined plate portion are provided so as to project around the upper opening of the net basket main body, and the oil distribution mesh is provided on the bottom portion and the lower peripheral portion of the net basket main body. In addition to the above-mentioned parts, the upper part has a window for filth discharge that also serves as an oil filling indicator, so when used for a cooker body that heats intermediately with an internal heating element, it flows by convection circulation of oil. It is possible to discharge foreign matter such as dust and the like to the outside of the basket main body, and always keep the inside of the net basket main body in a clean state. Further, since the lower side of the waste material discharge window also serves as the oil filling index portion, there is no danger that the oil filling amount becomes appropriate and the oil thermally expanded due to heating overflows from the cooker body. Furthermore, in the case of a cooker body with a heating element inside, it was not possible to directly insert skewers etc. due to the large depth, but this net basket body allows insertion, which makes it easier to use, etc. Has an excellent effect.
